Description of the organization and tasks of students’ independent work | |
The problems for independent work are similar to the ones given during practice work. The problem starts with statement of initial parameters. To solve the problem, application of the skills obtained during practice is necessary. | |
Criteria for Evaluating Learning Outcomes | |
The mark is formed as the weighted mean of the results of practical tasks, lab tasks and the test. | |
